Conclusion
The Creative variant is only if you’re extremely tight on the budget. While it does have all the basic features, it feels very bare basic. The Accomplished variant of the Curvv.EV is good value for money. This variant is available with both battery options. It also has all the features that don’t make it feel like a bare-bones car.
The Accomplished+ S trim seems like the perfect balance of all the features you need and the features that you want. You get projector headlamps, alloy wheels, a panoramic sunroof, auto wipers and a 360-degree camera as well at a premium of ~Rs. 80,000. You also get Tata’s Arcade EV app suite which is quite entertaining itself.
Do let us know what you think is the most value-for-money variant and also if you had to buy the Tata Curvv.EV, which variant would you pick?
Here’s what GTO replied:
Empowered+ S for me. The 9-speaker audio, ventilated seats, powered seat, ambient lighting etc. all contribute to a great cabin. I usually choose the top variant, but I hate ADAS, and don’t want the hassle of switching it off everytime I drive. So, to the Empowered+ A
Here’s what BHPian sri_tesla replied:
Accomplished (55 kWh) for me. If there had been a Creative 55kWh option, it would have been a tough decision. The only problem with Accomplished over Creative is Leatherette seats. I prefer cloth seats. When it comes to EVs, the choice should be to get as big a battery as one can afford over any other features. More range, less waiting time during the trips, and less range anxiety are more important.
Here’s what BHPian deepfusion replied:
Accomplished minus leatherette upholstery will be my choice. With Tata, the less the features, the better, in the long run. How the car would age is another topic, though.
